The Forever Trap

One of my loved ones
is looking for a new job.
He’s freakin’ himself out
by asking
“What do I want to do
for the rest of my life?”

He feels if he makes
the wrong decision,
he’s f*cked.

That’s bullsh*t thinking.

One.
The world is changing
too d*mn quickly
to know if this next job
will even survive for five years.

Two.
We’re changing.
What we want today
isn’t what we’ll want
in five years.

Three.
There are very few decisions
in life
we can’t recover from,
change,
revisit.

Yes, plan for tomorrow.
Build your future in your brain.
But don’t ever think
you’re locked into this plan.

Stay flexible.
